Well said, dragonfly!

I couldn't agree with you more. He needs help; what happened was horrible but people need to understand he is not a monster - much like Andrea Yates, he's a sick person who needs help. Condeming him as 'monster' will do no one any good and is nothing but harmful to all invovled.
